Correct Timing

'Homerun Stewart' timing swing to hit slow pitched softball.

Correct Timing

4/2/11

Is there such a thing,

whether we hurry or not

trying to keep set appointment

with destiny as if timetable,

or fate, in preordained universe,

feeling satisfied when meeting agreements

and demands set in place

according to preconceived best scenario

that can often run show

using 'have to', 'should', 'must',

as motivational whip for perseverance,

somehow 'assuming' we possess knowledge

which overrides ever changing circumstances

thinking 'good fortune' will end

if certain goals aren't accomplished

in order of scheduled completion,

filled with expectations, success, failure,

continuous measurement of 'job' progress

taking precedence over balanced living,

turning exciting dream into nightmare

where creative freedom becomes drudgery

expelling 'playful adventure' from picture,

instead of sensing ease, flow,

what brings enjoyment when diagnosing

how variables present in moment

influence 'correct timing' each day.
